Two new Beaks

Although I have done my stint on the community council, I have agreed to continue helping to develop the council's official website.
Today I took the opportunity to take some " local photographs" for it, although I have not got a brilliant eye for an arty shot and had just got back home when another small addition to the Ukrainian village turned up on the back of a farm trailer.
Chicken coop number 14, complete with two ancient and half blind hens were in need of a new home. The family's new puppy had made it his mission to eat the poultry's droppings at every given moment and had made himself poorly., and so the pensioners had to be rehomed
With me
Heyho

The lady down the road from me has turkeys and she said that one male turkey was constantly charging her and being a bully. So she made some soapy water into a plastic bottle with a sprayer.. She sprayed this ornery turkey in the eyes with this soapy water.. She said "He stopped and tears were coming out of his eyes and he was blinking blinking because of the soap"...BUT the good news is she only had to do this once.. He stopped charging her and being a bully.. (Good thing,,,he was headed to be cooked for Thanksgiving)...Love reading your blog.. and how you rescue animals.. thanks for the read..ta ta for now from Iowa:)

We've moved on from farts to scat. Natural progression. I do hope there's room in the village for the older newcomers. Have they names? If not, maybe Lucy and Ethel? Which reminds me, i hope Phyllis is still hanging in there.

On one hand I am happy they found you. But why couldn't the owners make a secure chicken run, friends has one, where the chickens are and puppy can't get in ?Plus the puppy will possible grow out of the poop eating he probably has a vitamin deficiency.Silly people. I hope the dog doesn't chew a favorite shoe or he will be out on the street.Daft owners.
